The sun glistens on the sea
Shining like a diamond
As the birds fly free
An old man ponders the years
Gone by
Watchin' a child with dreams
In his eyes
Looking through the eyes
Of a child at a world
Filled with laughter
The clouds paint a picture
In the sky The life he's lived just
Passed him by
He carries the wisdom
In his eyes
The road he's travelled
Has left him wise
To the beauty and joy
Of another life
As he sees himself
In his grandchild's eyes
